Seems a bit overly laissez faire!

After so many years on slow poke TV roads, I no longer feel comfortable driving on the freeway or even 45 mph on 27 or 466 during busy times of the day. Independence is one thing, but how much of that would I have if I got into a debilitating auto accident? An acquaintance did earlier this year and she's now permanently in a nursing home and severely depressed.

I'm definitely self-limiting as far as driving goes, and am in fact thinking about selling my car and being cart only. (Not that accidents don't happen with those as well, but the slower speeds are easier overall.)

I hope you’re golf cart has seat belts and you use them.
